Becuase you took out the bumper support your intercooler is not really in a good position right now. See the intakes on each side? Unless you smoothed down the bumper support frame which held it your intakes will be smashing against it creating a nice gash.

Should be ready in a few weeks...

And Wally, I realize that. I tried about 10 different ways mounting it and just gave in. I will be re shaping the front bumper anyways soo.... But I am not quite getting what you mean. I only removed the 5mph bumper, I removed no support...

I spent $120 on just misc parts alone today... And I have atleast $30 in stuff to buy tommorow!

Dont expect any updates for 3 days or so, im going to the beach .

Everything thing minus the boost guage and vac source for the brake booster is plumbed. Fuel lines, water lines, radiator hoses, misc vac needs and new oil lines are installed.

I am currently awaiting a dual alternator belt pully. Then I will finish some wiring and fire it. :-d

I live in Eugene and they don't have emmissions, and if you live outside of the city they usually say you're exempt
